2023 Mr. Olympia Prejudging Report.
The 2023 Mr. Olympia Prejudging took place on Friday, 3 November 2023.
This edition of the Mr. Oympia is very special, as every athlete arrived in incredible condition.
Defending champion Hadi Choopan is the man to beat. As expected Hadi’s incredible condition, set the standard of the show.
As it looks, the three men who are pushing and challenging Hadi Choopan for his title are Derek Lunsford, Samson Dauda, and Andrew Jacked.
Andrew Jacked was not in the final callout, and Samson was put in the middle for a couple of poses.
Samson was the biggest mand on stage, but when standing next to Choopan, he could not match Hadi’s condition, regardless of his size.
Derek Lunsford presented a fantastic physique, winning the back pose, but as Samson, Hadi Choopan destroys them with his condition.
As it looks, Hadi Choopan is still the man to beat. Derek Lunsford will be the man pushing Choopan, with Samson hoping the judges will prefer extreme size over condition.
